Fresh Mango, Sindhura (Lalbagh), 1 Kg (6-8 pcs/kg)

Ripeness: half rippen and could stay 5 days long enough before use. Appearance: where nice and tasty Color: good color with yellow and red

Received 4 Mangoes in a box, for the price at this time of year, they were great value for money! Weren't as sweet as I would have liked them to be, but perfect for dicing up and freezing for my morning smoothies. One of the mangoes was bad and had insects in it, so I wasn't too impressed about that, it had to be disposed of, the other 3 were very ripe, so had to chop them up immediately and either eat or freeze, next time I think I'll opt for the ripen at home variety to see how they turn out. Overall experience, not so bad, but not great either!

Received unripen mangoes.

Red and juicy

I received my order of 2 kilos of Sindhura Mangoes on 24th March 2025 afternoon. I received 14 small pieces, all hard & raw and as Green as can be! Sindhura always has a Red part that's why it is also known as Laalbagh Mango too. There was not a speck of Red anywhere. I had assumed logically that when I order 2 kilos of Mangoes from Amazon Fresh at least few pieces may be 3 or 4 at least would be in a ready-to-eat condition-but this wasn't the case! I didn't call Customer Service for an immediate refund bcoz I thought I would wait for the Mangoes to ripen and savor them. I waited and waited...today when they did seem ripened finally, I noticed there's a chemical infused smell and majority had rotted Black from the head. I tasted a morsel of a piece and it was tasteless. Not an iota of the usual little spicy honey-esque sweetness of Sindhura in it.I paid Rs.396 which is not a cheap deal and that too for a terrible batch of Sindhuras! I should have not waited and given the benefit of doubt. Its totally my loss bcoz the Mangoes are unfit for consumption and not worth a penny. I paid Rs.29 for EACH Mango and I am very very disappointed.

Ripeness

Poor quality. Not better mangoes, maybe they were from some local farms, most were already blackened, shrunk, wrinkly, Didn't smell good either. Taste was not like that of mangoes. Kind of bland taste. Colour may appear red, but it wasn't tasty.
